Spinal decompression therapy is a non-surgical treatment method aimed at relieving pressure on the spinal discs and nerves, which can help alleviate pain and improve function. One of the popular tools used in this therapy is the Accu-Spina decompression table. Below is an overview of both spinal decompression therapy and how the Accu-Spina table works.
What is Spinal Decompression Therapy?
Spinal decompression therapy involves gently stretching the spine to relieve pressure on the intervertebral discs, which act as cushions between the vertebrae. By creating negative pressure within the discs, this therapy can help:
- Reduce pain associated with conditions like herniated discs, bulging discs, sciatica, and spinal stenosis.
- Promote the retraction of herniated or bulging discs back into place.
- Facilitate the flow of nutrients and oxygen to the discs, promoting healing.
- Improve overall spinal alignment and function.
Accu-Spina Decompression Table
The Accu-Spina decompression table is a state-of-the-art device designed for spinal decompression therapy. Here’s how it works:
1. Mechanism of Action:
The Accu-Spina table uses a computerized system to provide precise and controlled decompression. Patients are secured on the table, and the device gently stretches the spine in a specific manner, creating a negative pressure in the targeted disc area.
This negative pressure can help to retract bulging or herniated discs and alleviate nerve compression.
2. Customization:
The table can be adjusted according to the patient’s specific needs, including the level of force applied, the duration of treatment, and the frequency of sessions. This customization allows for tailored treatment plans based on individual conditions and responses.
3. Comfort:
The Accu-Spina table is designed with patient comfort in mind. The adjustable settings and padded support help ensure a comfortable experience during treatment, which can last anywhere from 15 to 30 minutes per session.
4. Supporting Therapy:
Often, spinal decompression therapy is part of a comprehensive treatment plan that may include chiropractic adjustments, physical therapy, massage, and exercise recommendations to enhance recovery and promote spinal health.
Benefits of Using the Accu-Spina Table:
- Pain Relief: Many patients report significant pain relief after undergoing treatment on the Accu-Spina table, especially for conditions like sciatica or herniated discs.
- Improved Mobility: By alleviating pressure on nerves and improving spinal function, patients often experience increased mobility and a better quality of life.
- Enhanced Healing: The therapy can facilitate the body’s natural healing processes by improving blood flow and nutrient exchange in the affected areas.
